Embraer Executive Jets returned to the Sun ’n’ Fun International Fly-In and Expo as an exhibitor after a three-year hiatus. The company’s entry-level Phenom 100E and 300 light jets are being showcased this week at its airshow display (MD-006A).
“Launched in 2005, the Phenom 100 and Phenom 300 are fulfilling their mission as revolutionary jets, with a global fleet of more than 570 aircraft in 38 countries,” said Embraer Executive Jets president and CEO Marco Túlio Pellegrini. “Having been in service for about six years, the Phenom fleet has logged more than 500,000 flight hours.”
The updated Phenom 100E entered service last year, complete with multifunction spoilers and 11 new interior collections, standard veneer and a redesigned refreshment center. This year, new baseline features for the 100E include synthetic vision system, maps and charts, and an increased maximum zero fuel weight.
